| I would dig them up intact and try to overwinter them in pots. Unless the stalks and leaves begin to turn brown, I would not cut any of them back. You will need to cut way back on your watering and try to give them some humidity. If you are going to overwinter them in your house, spray them occasionally. Steve |
